vectoids
September 10th, 2007During my exchange semester in Bangkok, Thailand I took a course about game design. I showed my professor, Michael Skolnick, the aliens hate cows game I developed the semester before and we both agreed I should develop another one based on the sudden motion controls.
I was very happy because of this opportunity. Since I normally don´t have enough free time to develop something like this just for fun.
The final result is a game based on billiard physics. You take over the controlls of a ball, but you can not hit enemys directly. So you have to prod a little attack-ball against them. This sounds easier than it is. I implemented lots of different enemys, different backgrounds that have different friction and finally keyboard-controlls for all those who don´t have a MacBook.
You can find the game on its own site. Just download the version that suits your system and give it a shot prod.
